Chapter 738
Back at the dining table, Joseph immediately demanded, “Someone invited Aria to join the State Security Bureau?”
Wilson nodded. “Yes, Tessa did.”
Joseph suffered a heart attack, but he suppressed it.
Wilson noticed it and said casually, “I’m going abroad in a few days.”
Annoyed, Luke huffed, “Don’t go. You just got back. Go help your brother at his company.”
Wilson said flatly, “This isn’t up for discussion.”
Luke’s face darkened. He was about to erupt when Wilson drawled, “Dad, if you keep talking like that, I’ll never get back.
“I might just get married and settle down abroad.”
Luke’s heart ached. He snapped, “Don’t you dare!”
“Watch me,” Wilson shot back with a grin.
Back then, Wilson left for his studies abroad without a word to anyone. He disappeared for years.
Luke dreaded that his son would really leave him.
Wilson was his only son.
Luke suppressed his anger and said, “You love your sister, don’t you? If you go abroad, you’ll never see her again.”
Wilson said casually, “You could’ve just said it nicely. I’m just going abroad for a few days to handle some paperwork. I’ll be right back.”
Luke gritted his teeth and thought, ‘Damn it, you could’ve said it earlier.’

Aria’s project was approved in May.
Samuel thought, ‘Aria had only been here for less than a year. There was no way she could handle such an important project.’
He was about to voice his objection when Fred shot him a stern look. Fred said, “If this project gets derailed because of you, she’ll stick around for years. As long as she’s here, you’ll always be second best.”
Samuel was speechless and thought, ‘Well, he’s got a point.'”
“Fred, don’t get me wrong. I just want to know if Martin also gets involved, who’s calling the shots? Martin or Avia?” said Samuel.
“Aria,” Fred confirmed.
Samuel glanced at Aria and said politely, “Alright then, no objections from me. Ms. Saxon, let me know if you have any trouble with the project. I’m happy to help.”
Samuel thought, ‘If she failed to get the project done, she would have to leave.
Aria looked up and said, “Samuel, you mean you wanna in?”
1/3
Samuel thought. No way I’m gonna let a newcomer take the lead.
Samuel forced a smile and said. “My work is not yet done. But if you have questions, my door’s open.”
“Thanks, Samuel,” Aria said.
Samuel thought, A girl like Aria would be too proud to come to me for help.
It didn’t take long for Samuel to eat his words.
Aria actually came to him for help.
With all those students present, Samuel had no choice but to help her.
Samuel felt even more tired.
Aria wanted to build a team, and she thought Adrian was a good choice.
Aria bumped into Adrian in the cafeteria and asked him directly.
Aria thought, ‘It might take some effort to win over Adrian.
But Adrian nodded and said, ‘Deal’
Aria paused in surprise.
Adrian chuckled, “What’s wrong? Second thoughts already
Aria smiled. “Not at all. I’d be delighted to have you join us. May I add two more students?
Adrian asked, ‘Derek and Arthur?”
“Yes, you know them?” said Aria in confusion.
“They just got an award and published papers. Pretty impressive,” said Adrian
